For History Week 2021, Catharine Coleborne, Sandy Jeffs and Dr Leggatt will not only highlight the importance of histories of mental health but also integrate lived experience, which is often absent from such histories.
Sandy Jeffs and Dr Margaret Leggatt have known each other for over 40 years - Jeffs as someone with a lived experience of schizophrenia and Margie as an advocate for carers.
Their collaboration was, in Jeff's words 'a chance to integrate our two perspectives on mental health and construct a balanced and engaging narrative' about their experiences and the experiences of nearly 80 patients, carers and health professionals who were inmates or staff at Larundel Psychiatric Hospital in Bundoora, Victoria.
This is a free and online event. Registrations are important.
This event is a part of History Week 2021 #fromthegroundup, organised by the History Council NSW.
Hosted by University of Newcastle
